Hi Laurence,

Can you check the Site Log? There should be a more specifc error description there.

Cheers,
Peter

There are two errors - Module Load Exception followed by Page Load Exception:

There is also a General Exception a few seconds before these (probably when I logged in). Not sure if this is relevant:

I'm a little surprised that the ThreadAbortion gives you a feedback on screen. It is really a non-critical error that should just go unnoticed. I'll have to verify if this is new to DNN 4.3.5 to cause a module load exception upon this error.
Peter

So you are clear - this error occurs every time I click a download link. Its not an intermittent error.

Laurence,
Yes. I've just done a fresh install of DNN 03.04.05 and DMX 03.04.06. Everything seems to operate normally. I did find the error in the log, but downloads were perfect (whether 'inline' or as 'attachment'). I'll try and get rid of this stuff that clogs up the log, but the core team have also indicated they wanted to do something about the Threadabort exception (i.e. not logging it) as it rarely indicates a real problem.
Peter

Can you try DMX 03.04.06 on DNN 4.3.5 (rather than 3.x)?

Is there something else I can do to find the source of my problem?

Sorry, I misspelt in the post. I tried it on 04.03.05, not 03.04.05 as stated ...

I have figured something out .... the error only comes up when using one particular DMX module instance. If I use one of the other DMX module instances on the site it works. Also, if I add a new DMX module instance to the same page that the "broken" one is on, and point it at the same DMX folder, the new module works.

There must be something in the configuration of this particular module. If you are interested I can send you records from the DNN database, otherwise I will delete the "broken" module.

More info .... and now we are really getting to the root of it. The error occurs only when the DMX module is set up as a tab with the DNNStuff - Aggregator module (www.dnnstuff.com). If the DMX module is outside the Aggregator it always works, if it is inside it always errors. Before the DNN & DMX upgrade the DMX module was completely happy being inside the Aggregator.

I have DNNStuff - Aggregator v. 3.1.4

Can you look into this and try to fix it? Aggregator is a very popular module and we use it all over our site!

Thanks

As far as I know it never worked in a multi-tab module solution. I don't have it, nor can I support emedding in 3rd party modules. I program according to DNN guidelines and that should be enough to make it work. What does dnnstuff have to say about this?

Well it worked for the last 2 years embedded in the Aggregator module. I have also had so problems with any other module embedded in the Aggregator. I will take it up with DNNStuff and see what they say.

Who knows if it is caused by DNN, DMX or the Aggregator (I upgraded all three to their latest versions last weekend). I would say this though - both DMX and Aggregator are very popular modules and if they won't play together that can't help but be bad for both module's reputation.

I just upgraded to DMX 3.4.7 and the issue has disappeared! Did you do something in 3.4.7 to fix it, or was I lucky?

Hehe, what should I say? Truth is, we may never know what really was the problem. When I can't reproduce it, it is hard to debug. All I can do is try to make the code leaner, better, and more robust.

Well thanks for whatever you did because now our intranet is working again!
